What Are Some Of The Big Issues That Married Couples Fight About These Days?

Probably since the beginning of time, married couples have found their self in some sort of fuss or argument with each other. So what are they fighting about these days?  Is a conflict-free marriage really a sign that is is a healthy one? Some say yes and some say no. Today on the Top 5 at 7:45, I'll highlight my top issues that married people seem to fuss about.

1. Money - This seems to be the number one thing that married people fight about. Not enough money. Spending too much on the kids and the animals, etc.
2. Sex - Too tired. Not in the mood. I have a headache. These are a few excuses that married couples use as to why they don't spend more time in the bed room. Some experts say to talk about this outside the bedroom to avoid future conflicts.
3. The Children - To raise them correctly, they must become your life. However, they can't be used as an excuse to not have a date night with your spouse, or the family is sure to fail.
4. Housework - When people get tired and lazy, the chores go undone and that can be a real problem. Get your children involved to help or figure out a way to work together to avoid an argument.
5. Work - Some people have such a terrible home life that they use work as an excuse to not be home. Or maybe you had a date planned and you allow work to get in the way. Work a good schedule to avoid work interrupting those much needed date nights.
